WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"Simply enchanting...No doubt many who experience Rose-Williams’s evocation of a crush, leave with a crush on her." (Jen Norris Dance Reviews)
"Equal parts earnest and ironic..."
"I was laughing so hard I literally peed my pants a little. CRUSH is probably the best show I've ever seen..."
(Enthusiastic Audience Member)
* The original title for the December 2022 premier of this show was "We Are All Friends". Now it's "CRUSH"!
** CRUSH was made possible with support from FACT/SF and generous individual donors, as well as residencies through A.P.E., Berkeley Ballet Theater, The Field Center, The Feedback (JGPG), RoundAntennae, School for Contemporary Dance & Thought, and Shawl-Anderson Dance Center.
